The Top 5 Buffalo Bills Fullbacks Of The Past 30 Years

Recommended Posts

So my last “Top 5” thread was panned badly by some for being too negative. Speaking of negative many have said Fullback is a “dead position” in the NFL. Let’s take a second and remember the good times...or the good ones. Here goes a new attempt at a fun thread and a question that’s not easy to answer. Who was the best Bills FB of all time?!?!? Here are my Top 5 fullbacks from my perspective:

5. Corey McIntyre - All jokes aside this guy was the prefect blocking fullback. The ideal player to run ahead of Fred Jackson.

4. Jerome Felton Spencer - He was signed to a deal that was not favorable to the team but the dude could play FB. A punishing blocker who also could catch when given the opportunity.

3. Carwell Gardiner - when Polian drafted him in Round 2, I’m sure he saw more of a Tom Rathman sort of role in the K-Gun. But Carwell made some huge blocks for Thurman and Kenneth Davis and also made the Pro Bowl. He could carry the ball if he had to as well.

2. San Gash - Tremendous blocker who opened up huge holes and made average RB’s like Antwan Smith and Johnathan Linton look great.

1. Larry Centers - only played 1 year in Buffalo but had an amazing impact. He caught 80 balls as a FB. Unreal. Unfortunately his team was bad, but Larry is #1 in my book.
